Hey guys,The best alternative for a steering rack is a early model Passat.
This has to be a pre power steering one..it's pretty much identical to a 1975 super beetle rack.
As we all know they are like rocking horse mmmmmmm.
The only real difference is the mounts on the rack and the steering shaft is
longer and a different spline.Iv'e just in the middle of fitting one to my 73
You will have to cut down the lenght of the shaft and really get it built up and re-machined to the original beetle spline.
From what iv'e been told the spines on a early passat rack are unique and a
one off.Antway there you go.Mind you there arn't many Passat ones around either.
From the books iv'e read about high speed instability and the problems me mate found..toe settings are very important.
His car was terrible and very scary at 140mph I can tell you.
Depending on how much you have lowered you car,and tyre size you really need to spend some time just experimenting.you may find allot is from the rear.Hope this helps.
